When my child was here a few years back the teachers and teachers from other classes were building a packet against my child. The child wasnt doing anything wrong at all, just being a normal child and on top of it all, turns out the school wasnt academically challenging enough for my child. The principal and assistant principal were no help. The guidance counselor either and they had the audacity to say they dont have enough military kids to have an MFLC on school grounds. That blew my mind when fort hood IS the heart of killeen. They wanted to send a 1st grader to alternative school (WTH!!!!) I dont recommend if youre a military family with children who are brighter than the teachers themselves.

I believe it is up to each teacher, but my childrens teachers only sent homework if it was something they did not complete in class or was a project.

The teachers I had interactions with seem to be there for the kids and really care about their students success.

This year was the first year this school was open and I found the leadership staff to be organized and eager to communicate with parents.

A lot of the teachers are great about providing different ways to teach so the information reaches all students.
